800 K SAMPLES SENTSCHOOLS Average of 100 a Year Received, Says Graff. The Indianapolis public school system Is enriched yearly by an average of 100 of more or less technical nature, sent gratis by publishers, according to E. U. Graff, superintendent of schools. “The publishers send us new books as an advertisement,” Graff said. “Often they are expensive copies of elementary school tehcnleal data and research Information. We receive them at all times during the year. “They are sent to the particular department concerned or else put on the shelves of the teacher’s library.” Books received In this manner have a yearly valuation of about SSOO, Graff said. Prior to the selection, every three years, of new books by the State board of education for standard school use in Indiana, these free sample copies, and often sets of several volumes, are received in quantities daily at tfie Bchool offices. BOY RADIO FANS DULL NEXT DA Y Jack’s Sleep May Require Starting School an Hour Later. What next? The radio has been blamed for a lot of things, and now the question Is raised from an official of an eastern radio corporation as to whether the “late to bed, late to rise” practice of the school boy radio "bug” will eventually result in . the changing of school hours to accommodate this situation. Tli.? ladio official has written letters to school superintendents In principal cities citing the situation and asking ‘‘what is being done about it.” “Boys in America,” reads his letter to K. U. Graff, superintendent of the Indianapolis public schools, “are tremendously concerned with broadcasting and with experiments in code transmission and reception. "This has resulted In their staying up late and having a very tired feeling in the morning. “Together with school sessions in crowded cities beginning earlier than usual, this situaton has arisen. Is it advisable to revise school hours by starting an hour later so that the boy’s health is not hurt by the lack of sleep?” Mexican War Vet 100 Christmas Day Bv Time* Svclal GREENCASTLE, Ind., Dec. 17.
